The Argos will look to pull off back to back upsets when they travel to Winnipeg to take on the high flying Blue Bombers (winners of six straight) on Saturday afternoon. The Bombers were easy victors in the first meeting back in Toronto and may be worthy of their touchdown favoritism. The point spread line did open at -7.5 so there has been some Toronto money coming in. The total for this game is listed on the betting board at 50 points.
Toronto’s big win as a home underdog was a welcomed sight after posting four losses in a row both SU and ATS. The 5-6 Argonauts actually have a winning 3-1 record both SU and ATS in four previous road games this year. Dan LeFevour took over the helm as quarterback last week for an injured Ricky Ray and he put the ball up 36 times for 329 yards and one touchdown on 27 completions. He also added 39 rushing yards on 10 carries to help spark an offense that only averaged 22.3 points in the recent four-game slide.
The Blue Bombers extended their current winning streak to six games with last week’s 17-10 victory against Saskatchewan as eight-point home favorites. They have failed to cover in their last two games as favorites after closing as underdogs in the first four wins of this run.
